I am wanting a small mobile data plan (10gb-20gb) that does not time expire, in otherwords just consume the data. This is for NBN backup which is super reliable but does have outages. In a residential situation it is a complete waste of money to buy a 365 day plan for $100+ and 200gb+ which will be rarely used.
I cannot find any provider offering such product. Any advice>

Hi Barry,
As you’ve pointed out, most of the long expiry data only mobile broadband plans cost over $100 and you get 80GB or more of data.
The cheapest 365 day mobile data only plan in Finder’s database at the time of writing is from Aldi, which offers 30GB of data for $95.
If you consider that too much data for you, then other plans that offer smaller amounts of data are monthly plans, which may not suit your needs.
You can read more about mobile broadband in our guide to see if you can find something suitable: https://www.finder.com.au/broadband-plans/mobile-broadband
Hope this helps.
